The Aquatic Club

The Lorne Aquatic Club has for what seems forever enjoyed a prime location close to the pier. It's always conveyed the impression, at least to me, as being a pseudo-private retreat.  And it's never been apparent to me what the the members of the club actually do, apart from socialising and enjoying their view!

However, this year, a “Save our Club” banner has appeared on its walls. And there's now a sign at the entrance, which includes the words “Visitors Welcome”. And I spotted a courtesy bus (apparently owned by the local council). I have no idea of what might be going on here, but the thought crossed my mind that it's interesting to observe that a challenge sometimes promotes change!

  1. The proposed plan for the redevelopment of Point Grey proposes that the Acquatic and Anglers Club, the Fishing Co-Op and the Restaurant all be combined in one building.

    The Acquatic and Anglers Club obviously has a very active membership as it is able to open daily (6 days per week in winter) without pokie machines.
